Spectrum 2.0

Review of 'Uridium'

Superb action shooter in which manoueverability is all. Uridium shares surprisingly little in common with other horizontal shmups in that you need to turn back on yourself whilst avoiding buildings and the enemy. The quick-slow pace -with inertia - is challenging, successfully defeating a level is very satisfying.

The game plays well to the Spectrum's clean and well defined mono graphics. The shading creates atmosphere and is especislly impressive.
